Leg Strength Comparison between Younger and Middle-age Adults.
Although a risk of occupational musculoskeletal diseases has been identified with age-related strength degradation, strength measures from working group are somewhat sparse. This is especially true for the lower extremity strength measures in dynamic conditions (i.e., isokinetic). The objective of this study was to quantify the lower extremity muscle strength characteristics of three age groups...
متن کاملA Comparison of Vowel Acoustics Between Older and Younger Adults
Previous research has shown a difference in vowel acoustics between older and younger adults, possibly related to age-related changes in vocal tract morphology. Data suggest that vowel acoustics may vary as a function of neighborhood density and word frequency in older adults, possibly due to the mediating influence of lexical access. However, no studies have examined the relationship of densit...
متن کاملLeg stiffness and electromyography of knee extensors/flexors: comparison between older and younger adults during stair descent.
This study investigated differences in knee extensor/flexor electromyography (EMG), leg loading rate, and leg stiffness in older and younger men during stair descent. Sixteen older men (mean +/- standard deviation [SD] = 72 +/- 4.5 years) and sixteen younger men (mean +/- SD = 21.2 +/- 0.5 years) were recruited. The EMG signals were recorded from the rectus femoris and the biceps femoris, while...
متن کاملThe comparison of cardiovascular risk factors in middle-age adults male with different abdominal obesity and physical activity levels
The purpose of this investigation was to determine cardiovascular risk factors in middle-age adults male with different abdominal obesity and physical activity levels. 40 males aged 35 to 55 years divided to four groups. Group 1 :(physically active with high WHR), group2: (physically active with low WHR), group3: (non-active with high WHR), group 4: (non-active with low WHR). Physical acti...
متن کاملRelationship between Ball Kick Velocity and Leg Strength: A Comparison between Soccer Players and Other Athletes
This study compared soccer players with non-soccer players, with respect to the relationship between ball velocity due to an instep kick and various leg strengths. Ten young university soccer players and ten other athletes (non-soccer players) had their instep kick ball velocity (BV) measured with respect to isokinetic leg strength. The BVs from the soccer players were significantly greater tha...
